brought the troll's own knife´hand up�察�forcing the blade closer and closer to Binabik's sweating face。
       ;Why 。。。 are 。。。 you。。。 �拭─�The fingers cinched tighter�察�cutting off the little man's air and his words。 The monk's pale�察�sweating face hung close�察�it gave off a feverish heat。 Binabik arched his back and heaved。 For a moment he partially broke the monk's hold�察�and he used that sliver of freedom to kick himself off the edge of the stair�察�tumbling them both over so that when they rolled to a halt�察�Binabik was on top。 The troll leaned forward�察�putting all his weight behind his knife�察�but Hengfisk held it away with one hand。 Although he was thin�察�the monk was nearly twice the troll's size�察�only the odd jerkiness of his movements seemed to be keeping him from a swift victory。 Hengfisk's fingers slithered around the troll's neck once more。 Frantic�察�Binabik tried to push the hand away with his jaw�察�but the monk's grip was too strong。
       ;Miriamele� ─�Binabik gasped。 ;Miriamele� ─�There was no answering cry。 The troll was choking now�察�fighting for breath。 He could not force his blade closer to Hengfisk's relentlessly smiling face or dislodge the hand around his tiroat。 The monk's knees rose and squeezed Binabik's ribs so that the little man could not wriggle free。
       Binabik turned his head and bit Hengfisk's wrist。 For a moment the fingers at his neck clamped even more tightly�察�then skin and muscle parted beneath the troll's teeth�察�hot blood welled in his mouth and spilled down his chin。
       Hengfisk did not cry out´his grin did not even slacken´but he abruptly twisted�察�using his legs to throw Binabik to one side。 The troll's knife slipped from his hand and skittered free�察�but he was too occupied trying not to skid off the edge of the step and down into darkness to do anything about it。 He came to a halt�察�palms flat on the stone�察�feet dangling beneath the baluster and past the brink�察�then pulled himself forward with hands and knees�察�desperate to recover his knife。 It was lying only inches from Hengfisk�察�who crouched against the wall�察�protuberant eyes glaring at the troll�察�hand drizzling red onto the stair。 But his grin had vanished。
       ;Vad。。。 �拭─�Hengfisk's voice was a hollow croak。 He looked from side to side and up and down�察�as though he suddenly found himself somewhere unexpected。 The expression he turned at last on Binabik was full of confused horror。
       ;Why are you attacking me�拭─�Binabik rasped。 Blood was smeared on his chin and cheeks。 He could barely speak。 ;We were not having friendship 。。。 but 。。。; He broke off in a fit of coughing。
       'Troll。。。 �拭─�Hengfisk's face�察�which moments before had been stretched in glee�察�had gone slack。 ;What。。。 �拭�Ah�察�horrible�察�so horrible� �
       Astonished by the change�察�Binabik stared。
       ;I cannot 。。。; The monk seemed overwhelmed with misery and bafflement。 His fingers twitched。 ;I cannot 。。。 oh�察�merciful God�察�troll�察�it is so cold。。。 � �
       ;What has happened to you�拭─�Binabik pulled himself a little nearer�察�keeping a watchful eye on the dagger�察�but though it lay only a short distance from Hengfisk's hand�察�the monk seemed oblivious。
;I cannot tell。 I cannot speak it。; The monk began to weep。 'They have filled me。。。 with。。。 pushed me aside。。。 how could my God be so cruel�拭�
'Tell me。 Is there some helping thing I can do�拭�
       The monk stared at him�察�and for a brief moment something like hope flickered in his bulging�察�red´rimmed eyes。 Then his back stiffened and his head jerked。 He screamed with pain。
       ;Hengfisk� ─�Binabik threw his hands up as though to ward off whatever had stabbed at the monk。
       Hengfisk jerked�察�arms extended straight out�察�limbs shaking。 ;Do not� �。; he shouted。 ;No� ─�For an instant he seemed to master himself�察�but his gaunt face�察�when he turned it back to Binabik�察�began to ripple and change as though serpents roiled beneath the flesh。 ;They are false�察�troll。; There was a terrible�察�deathly weight to his words。 ;False beyond believing。 But as cunning as Time itself。; He turned awkwardly and took a few staggering steps down the stairway�察�passing so close that Binabik could have reached out to touch him。 ;Go�察─�the monk breathed。
       Unnerved even more than he had been by the attack�察�Binabik crawled forward and picked up his knife。 A sound behind him made him whirl。 Hengfisk�察�his lips skinned back in a grin once more�察�was lurching up the steps。 Binabik had time only to lift his arms before the monk fell upon him。 Hengfisk's stinking robe wrapped around them both like a shroud。 There was a brief struggle�察�then stillness。
       Binabik crawled out from beneath the body of the monk。 After regaining his breath�察�he rolled Hengfisk over onto his back。 The hilt of his bone knife protruded from the monk's left eye。 Shuddering�察�the troll pulled the blade free and wiped it on the dark robe。 Hengfisk's last smile was frozen on his face。
Binabik picked up his fallen torch and stumbled back up the steps to the landing。 Miriamele had vanished�察�and the packs that had contained their food and water and other important articles were gone�察�too。 Binabik had nothing but his torch and his walking stick。
       ;Princess� ─�he called。 The echoes caromed into the emptiness beyond the stairs。 ;Miriamele� �
       Except for the body of the monk�察�he was alone。

       ;He must have gone mad。 Are you certain that is what he wants�拭�
       ;Yes�察�Prince Josua�察�I am certain。 I spoke to him myself。; Baron Seriddan lowered himself onto a stool�察�waving away his squire when the young man tried to take his cloak。 ;You know�察�if this is not a trick�察�we could hardly wish for a better offer。 Many men will die before we take the city walls�察�otherwise。 But it is strange。;
       ;It is not at all what I expected of Benigaris�察─�Josua admitted。 ;He demanded that it be Camaris�拭�Is he so tired
of life�拭�
       Baron Seriddan shrugged�察�then reached out to take the cup his squire brought him。
       Isgrimnur�察�who had been watching silently�察�grunted。 He understood why the baron and Josua were puzzled。 Certainly Benigaris was losing´in the last month�察�the coalition assembled by Josua and the Nabbanai barons had pushed the duke's forces back until all that remained in Benigaris' control was the city itself。 But Nabban was the greatest city in Osten Ard�察�and its seaport made a true siege difficult。 Some of Josua's allies had provided their own house navies�察�but these were not enough to blockade the city and starve it into submission。 So why should the reigning Duke of Nabban offer such an odd bargain�拭�Still�察�Josua was taking the news as though it were he who would have to fight Camaris。
       Isgrimnur shifted his aching body into a more fortable position。 ;It sounds mad�察�Josua´but what have we to lose�拭�It is Benigaris who is trusting our good faith�察�not the other way around。;
       ;But it's madness� ─�Josua said unhappily。 ;And all he wants if he wins is safe passage for himself and his family and servants�拭�Those are surrender terms´so why should he wish to fight for them�拭�It makes no sense。 It must be a trick。; The prince seemed to be hoping someone would agree with him。 ;This sort of thing has not been done in a hundred years� �
       Isgrimnur smiled。 ;Except by you�察�just a few short months ago in the grasslands。 Everyone knows that story�察�Josua。 They'll be telling it around the campfires for a long time。;
       The prince did not return his smile。 ;But I used a trick to force Fikolmij into that� �And he never dreamed that his champion might lose。 Even if Benigaris does not believe that this is truly his uncle�察�he must have heard what sort of warrior he is� �None of it makes sense� ─�He turned to the old knight�察�who had been sitting in the corner�察�still as a statue。 ;What do you think�察�Sir Camaris�拭�
       Camaris spread his broad hands palms upward before him。 ;It must end。 If this is how the ending will e�察�then I will play my part。 And Baron Seriddan speaks truly�此�we would be fools to throw away this chance out of suspicion。 We may save many lives。 For that alone�察�I would do whatever is needed。;
       Josua nodded。 ;I suppose so。 I still do not understand the why of it�察�but I suppose I must agree。 The people of Nabban do not deserve to suffer because their lord is a patricide。 And if we acplish this�察�we have a greater task before us´one for which we will need our army whole and strong。;
       Of course�察�Josua's down´mouthed�察�Isgrimnur realized。 He knows that we have horrors before us that may overshadow the slaughter in the Onestrine Pass so gravely that we think back on that battle as a day of sport。 Only Josua�察�of all of us in this room�察�survived the siege of Naglimund。 He's fought the White Foxes。 Of course he's grim。
       Out loud�察�he said�此 �Then it's settled。 I just hope somebody will help me find a stool for my fat old backside so I can watch it happen。;
       Josua looked at him a little sourly。 ;It is not a tourney�察�Isgrimnur。 But you will be there´we all will。 That seems to be what Benigaris wants。;

       Rituals�察�Tiamak thought。 My people's must seem as odd to the drylanders as these to me。
       He stood on the windy hillside�察�watching as Nabban's great city gates swung wide。 A small procession of horsemen emerged�察�the leader dressed in plate armor that gleamed even beneath the cloudy afternoon skies。 One of the other riders carried the huge blue and gold banner of the Kingfisher House。 But no horns blew。
       Tiamak watched Benigaris and his party ride toward the place where the Wrannaman stood with Josua's pany。 As they waited�察�the wind grew stronger。 Tiamak felt it through his robe and shivered。
       It is bitterly cold。 Too cold for this time of year�察�even near the ocean。
       The riders stopped a few paces short of the prince and his followers。 Josua's soldiers lounged in scattered ranks about the bottom of the hillside�察�caught up in the moment and watching attentively。 Faces also peered from the windows and rooftops of outer Nabban and from the city walls。 A war had been abruptly halted so that this moment could take place。 Now all the participants stood waiting�察�like toys set up and then forgotten。 Josua stepped forward。 ;You have e�察�Benigaris。; The leading rider pushed up the visor of his helm。 ;I have�察�Josua。 In
